 Hi,
 
 For some reason, it looks like we lose keypad() mode, so that the arrow
 keys are treated as sequence of single keys instead of left, right, etc.
 I'm not quite sure why.  One oddity is that running with a high level of
 debugging for libcurses (compiled with make BEBUG_CURSES=1) makes the
 problem go away.
 
 The garbled screen looks like a refresh() related problem with multiple
 windows - I only see parts of the underlying main screen drawn, and not
 all of it.  This is probably due to a behaviour difference between our
 libcurses and ncurses.
 
 Thanks,
 
 J
